well done



Funny, this post should coincide with a request from Lauren over at Aspiring Kennedy to post about this today! Have you heard about "Charity Water?" I cannot imagine not having fresh water to drink or to shower! Truth of the matter is that 1 out of 8 of us do not have access to clean water. Several bloggers have joined to raise awareness for this special "Charity Water" campaign.How timely, especially since I am considering this "starrglint" aqua walnut wallpaper for my new powder room. Truly, I think it makes for a "well done" water closet and a good reminder to give thanks for clean water.
(FYI, I am planning on giving out little donation cards attached to fresh bottles of sparkling water for the holidays~ ) above image from pretty pink tulips

    No, I can not imagine not having clean water:( What a terrific idea for your Christmas shin dig, love the charity cards. Can't wait to see pics of your powder room:) I'm not a huge country fan but Brad Paisley has a song about water.

    hi patricia,

    great post and great reminder.

    one of my work t-shirts from aveda reminds me everyday that i wear it..every 15 seconds a child dies from lack of access to clean water.

    every 15 seconds!
